How to Earn Free Bitcoins by Playing Games Online



With the Bitcoin price hovering above $650 ($667.02 as I write this), there’s a renewed interest in Bitcoins and ways to earn more of them. And for many people, Bitcoin faucets (sites that give away small amounts of free bitcoins) are becoming more and more of a viable option. I plan on devoting an entire section of this site to Bitcoin faucets including FAQs and guides on how to collect free Bitcoins from them. But for now the goal is to start earning Bitcoins right away and the quickest and easiest way I know of to do that is by visiting the best paying Bitcoin faucets.

This article covers the highest paying free Bitcoin website that I’ve come across so far, and it happens to be quite addicting as well.


It’s called FaucetGame.com. You can collect up to 250 free Satoshi every 15 minutes and play games to win credits (which can be converted to Bitcoins later). There is no cost to join but you do have to register an account which requires an email, Bitcoin address for payouts, and a username and password. Once registered, you can start collecting free Satoshi right away. They have a faucet that will give you Satoshi every 15 minutes, along with several casino type games where credits can be wagered, lost, and won.


Free Bitcoin Faucet
The first place you’ll want to go is the free Bitcoin faucet. This faucet pays very well when compared to other sites and the site layout is clean and easy to navigate so trying to collect free coins isn’t a chore. Banner ads are present but not obnoxious or invasive and collecting free Satoshi requires little more than clicking to verify you’re human. The faucet gives you a set amount, up to 250 free Satoshi every 15 minutes (the payout increases as you level up and increases even more on the weekends).

Here’s the catch…
The faucet payouts are rewarded as credits to your account, but no worries, the credits can be converted back to Satoshi and paid out in Bitcoins as soon as you reach the minimum payout (currently 50,000 Satoshi).
I believe the reason they convert payouts to credits is so that you can play the casino games with these credits, win (or lose) more credits, convert what’s left into Bitcoins, and it’s still not a gambling website and doesn’t fall under any online gambling laws. It’s completely free to play and costs nothing more than your time. And hey, you get to earn free Bitcoins by playing games.

Earn Free Satoshi by Playing Games
FaucetGame claims that the majority of their games are rigged in the player’s favor and after spending some (a good deal of) time on the site, I’ll agree that most of the games are rigged to let you win. Check back in the near future for a full guide on the games and ways to increase your payouts and earn more money.
If you’re brand new, “Falling Fortunes” has the lowest risk of losing credits so you might want to play it first. Wheel of Wealth and Slot Machines are other good ones to play when starting. Also, be very careful playing Roll of Chance (ROC) since changing the payout multiplier changes the odds and the allure of high payouts has caused many players to go broke.

Free Bonus Satoshi!
We’re not done yet. You can earn thousands of bonus Satoshi every single day and this is the number one reason FaucetGame ranks in the top free Bitcoin sites on the web. Let me repeat that… THOUSANDS of bonus Satoshi every single day. And it’s easy to do.

Daily Bonus
Play 5 of the games a set number of times (210 plays total) and collect the Daily Bonus Bitcoins. The bonus is multiplied by your player level so it starts off just ok but quickly becomes lucrative as you play the games and level up. You can easily start earning 1,000-1,500 Satoshi every day from this bonus alone.

Make it Rain!
While playing games you have the option of chatting with other players who are on at the same time. Each chat message you send costs 100 credits that goes into a Rain Pool. Every hour this pool rains free money on randomly selected chat participants. You won’t be rained on every time this happens, but it’ll happen enough to make it worthwhile and make you want to keep coming back for more.

Weekend Bonus
Payouts from the free Bitcoin faucet and the Daily Bonus are increased on the weekends for even more earning potential.

Refer Other Players
The site has a referral program that will pay you free Satoshi every time one of your referrals collects from the faucet. The person you referred still gets the same payout as everyone else, but you collect a small bonus in addition to the amount they receive. And this happens every time they collect from the free faucet. Refer more people and/or active players and this could be a nice little source of passive Bitcoin income.

VIP
It costs money to become a VIP player but some of the perks include increased payouts and the ability to auto-play the casino games. The full list of perks is available at the site and while it might be tempting to upgrade right away, higher level members agree that it is best to wait until you are a higher level before upgrading… otherwise the out of pocket cost is not worth the rewards.
I don’t have further info on VIP because I am still a low level and only considering it. If I do upgrade to VIP, I’ll post here with the juicy details.


There’s plenty more to do and say regarding FaucetGame but hopefully this overview gave you a good starting point for earning free Bitcoins right away.
